1999 draft, Ricky (spleef) Williams trade

SFREDSKIN · 04-25-2008, 09:54 PM

Initially we made a great trade getting all of NO draft picks and basically gave most of them away to Chicago to move up and draft Champ Bailey. Out of that draft what do we have to show? John Jansen and I guess you say Clinton Portis. We could have had a Dallas type draft like the Herschel Walker trade, but no we fudged it up!!

We are long overdue for a great draft. The real value of the draft is being able to find starting quality/solid performers in rounds 4-7. So by that measure, we have Anthony Montgomery, Kedric Golston, and Rock Cartwright to be thankful for.

Thankfully, recently, they've been able to avoid the ultimate disasters: picking busts in the early rounds. The biggest obstacle is having all your draft picks, and this is the first time since 2002 we've had this many.

Hopefully Vinny hits this one out of the park.

I don't remember what we traded to get the #2 and #3 overall picks in the 2000 draft, but we did get Chris Samuels out of it.
